If there is an outstanding loan on the property, then you would need permission from your mortgage provider. With the recent introduction of HMO (house of multiple occupancy) licencing in the Borough of Redbridge may also mean that you need a special licence to let your property.

Abode will accompany each of the viewings unless agreed otherwise with the Landlord. Feedback should follow the next day by telephone call / email once the tenant and been contacted.

Yes, of course.  Some Landlords like to stay behind the scenes but if you would like to meet with the tenant then we can arrange this for you.

Abode employ an independent referencing company who will carry out very detailed checks on the proposed tenant. These include employment checks, previous Landlord checks and credit checks.

Generally, the deposit held will be between four to six weeks rent. If there is to be a pet in the property, then a six week deposit is the norm.

We would always suggest that an independent inventory is carried out on the property. It will detail the condition of the property at the start point of tenancy and will assist in any claim to retain funds from the damage deposit should this be necessary.

Your rent is paid within 24hrs of receipt. This can alter slightly due to public holidays etc..

A detailed statement will show the rental payment, deductions or any other related costs.
